This buckwheat porridge is creamy, rich and filling. Topped with my pumpkin spice swirl I can think of no better autumn breakfast! A hearty and healthy breakfast to get you in the right frame of mind to seize the day!
Ingredients
Porridge
- ¼ cup / 50gbuckwheat groats

Pumpkin Swirl
- 2 tablespoons cooked pumpkin puree

Instructions
- Soak buckwheat groats overnight.
- In the morning strain and rinse the soaked groats well.
- Place them in a blender.
- Add water and all remaining ingredients.
- Blend until smooth.
- Pour into a small saucepan and warm through on the stovetop. Keep an eye on it as it thickens quickly! You may also microwave on high for one to two minutes.
